S25/26| The Official Match Thread | Derby 2 Swansea 0 | Att: 27,841 | 14/02/26 | The EFL Championship | Pride Park Stadium

I just can't see that, at least for the first 75 mins. ~It's not like we weren't trying to move the ball quickly on transition. They were all camped behind the ball in their half, which meant we were bound to have to entice them out.
I have to disagree, I try to look for positives but we did not play like a team that could have closed to 2 points off the top 6 if we had managed to beat Derby by 3 goals. Much of that fault can lie in the first half when Eom didn't know what a pass was and Cullen who wasn't showing or making any useful runs at all and just pointing left and right

But in the second we didn't get out of first gear, we got punished for getting the fundamentals wrong defending corners and even when behind we waited too long to make changes and over the whole 96 minutes of play didn't create a single opportunity for Vipotnik
 
Some poor decision making in the final third today. Vip feeding off scraps. We had 15 goal attempts but didn't really look like scoring.
 
I'm not going to over-react. Our flaws make us what we are, a midtable side, but we're making some progress. I'm not sure any coach can make us deadly in the final third, you've either got it or you haven't. Onwards and upwards.
S*** I need some of your positivity... I was dreaming of promotion 😉 😉... Joking aside.. Good call.. 🤙... Just felt we massively let ourselves down today and could of done better.
 
Ones of those days today, just goes to show how far our standards have gone over the last few weeks.

I have no doubt the manager and players will be a lot more frustrated than us today.

Bristol City at home is going to be huge.
 
Don't post much anymore as life has taken over a bit.

The overreaction is quite spectacular.

6 points out of 9 and one bad day has us four steps back and screams of the return of Martin ball.

Pathetic.
It’s like a tornado at Toys R Us! Matos is now a clueless lovechild of Sheehan and Martin and all hope is lost.
 
You're a scourge on this site, you should have stayed in retirement. Always bullying others. Didn't anybody tell you that the way you treat others in life, defines who you are? Is your home life that dismal that you feel a need to do this?
Oh thank you Nile. Glad you pointed out that I am a bully and then question my personal life 🤣



I treat people in the way they treat myself, maybe you should read into that a bit and you might get the answer 👍
Give you a hint, I'm polite to those who are polite to myself 😉

Nail on head. We unfortunately have 1 winger and 10 who are bench/rotation players in this division and another winger who I'm convinced is a rugby player who somehow found himself in this sport by mistake.
